A Time Of War: Memoir of a Vietnam Medic
Price range: $3.99 through $10.99These are my stories from my time serving at the end of the war- but probably not in consecutive order. I am 66 years old as I write this and do feel that time and memory may not be 100%, but I will tell my stories as best I can remember them. May they give insight and understanding to anyone who cares to read them. The experience did change my life, however, I did not directly volunteer, nor would I choose to do it again if I could go back in time. I remember seeing tears in my Dad’s eyes, himself a WWII combat veteran, when I told him I, too, was going to war. My mother openly wept. I promised her I would not take any unnecessary chances-a promise I would later break.

World War II is winding down in the summer of 1945, but not for Major Jenkins and his band of Merrill’s Marauders. They have spent months combing the Burmese jungle for the notorious Japanese commander Colonel Maruyama and his troops. Major Jenkins, Captain Beltrans and what was left of their band were outnumbered two to one; so, they had to devise a plan that would overcome the odds. But after they settled the score with their enemy, they had to march hundreds of miles through the jungle back to their base near the Indian border. It was now August, and the war was over, but how would the local civilians living along the only trail out of Burma view the American soldiers?
Their journey back home was fraught with unexpected dangers and facing unplanned enemies through an unforgiving jungle. They had never been taught at West Point how to fight their new enemy.
After the war, Captain Beltrans is convinced that he should return Colonel Maruyama’s samurai sword to his descendants in Japan. However, what he thought would be a routine side trip to a modern country turned into a harrowing adventure in Japanese politics and a thousand-year-old culture. He ended up in an ancient Zen Garden in Kyoto wondering if he had done the right thing by killing enemy soldiers and civilians during the war. Does he get help from his deceased native grandmother?
